Default Rear end noise


My 1990 gt is f**** up. Every time I step on the brake the rear brakes make a thumping noise. Once I pulled the Ebrake and I heard a pop but the Ebrake still works fine. I'm not sure what the noise is but it is really pissing me off. [:@]Do you guys have any suggestions ?

Have you done anything to them recently? Have you pulled the wheels to look at the brakes to see anything obvious? That would be the 1st thing to do.

Are the drums adjusted correctly. They should just barely drag on the shoes. Is there any pulsation upon brake application. Are you sure it's a brake problem and not a brake induced noise?

I think you maybe on to something when you say brake induced noise. Maybe berring noise ? Some times I get a howling noise when I make a turn.
